The build that is using this part is Phanteks AMD Ryzen 9 5950X Work Station.
The Ryzen 9 5950X is a 16-core, 32-thread CPU designed for the AM4 platform. It uses AMD's Ryzen architecture to split large tasks into smaller ones across its cores. The CPU is optimized for excellent desktop performance, including browsing, gaming, and professional productivity. With a TDP of 105 watts, it maintains high boost clocks and stable performance. The Zen 3 architecture significantly improves multicore performance and core speed compared to previous versions. At its launch, it offered better performance than Intel's competing CPUs, making it the best option for a period. However, the CPU does not include a cooler and is recommended to use water cooling for optimal performance. This generation is also one of the last for the AM4 socket.
I give the Ryzen 9 5950X a 5/5.
